Couldn't care less now from English POVAnd yet Australia are miles ahead. Make of it what you will.

If you think this is bad you should have seen how England batted before Bazball.We don't run through them because they know how to bat in different ways. We are unfortunately all about being entertaining and reckless
... He's probably holding out for that very thing and might be secretly hoping that if he finishes Number 2 on the list that one day they'll expunge Murali's record for 'chucking'... so he effectively becomes de-facto all time leader wicket taker... lolI doubt he would want to retire after holding out for so long , he probably wants to go past Warne's record first ..
Sometimes star players are given longer rope than the others , also England tend to drop bowlers in the name of rotation without totally discarding them after a bad series ..He could have a bad series here , then resurface against a weak batting unit like SA and take a bucket load of wickets then all will be forgotten by the selectors ..Might not be up to him. Has to be performing at top level to be selected.
I agree but how much of that is simply picking much, much more talented players? "Better than Burns and Sibley" is really not much of a high bar (one that Crawley hasn't reached!). The guy who has really improved dramatically is Bairstow and he did make a fine hundred not long before this all started.If you think this is bad you should have seen how England batted before Bazball.

Makes me sick England didn't adjust their style yesterday and have now paid the hefty priceIf you think this is bad you should have seen how England batted before Bazball.
Duckett is much better, foakes has been better with the bat after bazball than before. From a bowling front robinson has got much fitter, leach has been better even if the stats don't fully reflect that.I agree but how much of that is simply picking much, much more talented players?

I doubt whether county cricket will appeal to him. Maybe some sort of media role is the likeliest next step.It’s becoming apparent that Anderson at age 40 is struggling in this series. Will he retire (from international cricket) at the end of the season? Better to go before you’re pushed? He could carry on in county cricket rather than retire altogether.
I am just irate with them for TOTALLY throwing it away since 188-1 yesterday. Losing an Ashes like that is absolutely sickening but fully deserved for such stupidityAustralia’s best players are closer to their peaks than England’s best
Our worst players are miles better than England’s worst and you have more of them
Really is that that simple
He's honestly batting like Shane Watson, and not in a positive sense. Just planting that front foot miles down and presenting a big old target whilst pushing at balls that aren't in line.Marnus has looked terrible here, but atleast he's grinding it out when it's tough unlike every england bat not named stokes. Also, that LBW was out.
I mean we laugh at Broad but these umpires...Lol it looked SO out as well.
It's true, and I stick to my view that a composite team at this stage of their careers would have 8 or 9 Australians. But that doesn't excuse the wastefulness of England's approach in both tests. When you're up against a better team, you don't need to give them a helping hand.Australia’s best players are closer to their peaks than England’s best
